He’s ready to fix their marriage and move on with their lives, however Kara’s reluctance to renew their relationship isn’t their only problem. Danger lurks just around the corner… and there’s a chance she could disappear permanently.  

Excerpt
Stepping into the inner sanctum of After Midnight, I was bombarded by breasts. Literally. It took two point two nanoseconds before there was a stripper’s pasty covered titties rubbing against my arm. Turning my head, I gave the woman a fuck off look, but when she gave me a hopeful, sexy smile back, I realized my glower only seemed to have turned her on more. Weird. Usually, when I gave someone that glare, they hightailed it in the opposite direction.
“Hey, baby. I haven’t seen you around the club before. Are you a newly patched member or something?”
Jesus. This chick was practically humpin’ my leg because I was wearing biker leather? Unbelievable.
When one of her hard nipples practically stabbed me in my arm, I looked down at her rack to make sure she didn’t have a small needle-like weapon hidden under those sparkly pasties of hers. Unfortunately, she took my perusal as encouragement.
“If you want to blow off some steam, I could take you into one of the private rooms and wipe that frown off your face handsome. For a taste of you, I wouldn’t even charge.”
Wasn’t it sad that my dick didn’t even twitch at that blatant invitation? She was a pretty girl with her medium length blond hair, a tight body, and sweet little breasts, but she didn’t do a damn thing for me. It was further proof my dick and heart were still married to a woman who no longer wanted them.
As she tried to slide her hand over my stomach, roaming towards my waistband, I caught and stopped it before she could go any farther. “Appreciate the offer, honey, but I’m here on business.”
Blondie gave me an adorable pout. “Well, after you’re done with your business, will you let me give you some pleasure?”
Shaking my head at her persistence, I answered, “Maybe another time.”
The stripper huffed in exasperation before turning her head towards the sound of some feminine giggling off to our left. Looking over at the sound, I found my brother with his hands full of stripper. Literally. There was a cute brunette with her legs wrapped around his waist and her tongue down his throat. Obviously, Declan didn’t have the same qualms I had. He was eagerly taking what the stripper was offering, not giving a fuck that he was standing in plain sight, making out with his hands under her mini skirt, grabbing her ass.
Blondie left me to go stand behind Declan and started roaming her hands over his chest and whispering in his ear.
Rolling my eyes at my brother, I glanced over to find Lucas in his own predicament. He had a redheaded stripper who kept trying to grab his junk whenever he let her hands free. Honestly, I had to laugh at the sight because there was a hardened soldier, a guy who had been through more military training and special missions than your average soldier would ever see, and he seemed to be completely freaked out by a chick trying to grab his junk.
I didn’t have long to laugh at him, though, before a man walked up behind the feisty redheaded stripper mauling Lucas, grabbed her around the waist, and physically picked her up and set her aside, away from them both. When she opened her mouth to protest, the interloper, who was also wearing a Regulators’ cut, cocked one blonde eyebrow at her in a silent dare to continue. Catching the hint, she pivoted on her stiletto heel and stomped away in feminine rage.
When the man turned back to smile at Lucas, I was able to get a better look at him. Buzzed blonde hair, a strong fit form in a black T-shirt, his cut, and jeans; he easily looked as if he could have stepped out of the military yesterday. Not exactly what I had pictured when I thought of an outlaw biker. The man held out his hand and then enveloped Lucas in a one-armed hug.
Lucas spoke loudly to be heard over the music. “Good to see you again, Hammer.”
“It’s been a long time, man.”
“Hell yeah, it has. I’ve got to tell you, if I’d known that was the reception waiting for me, I might have taken you up on your offer to come back and check out the club when we got out of the Army.”
Hammer laughed. “Fuck that, I’ve heard you fell into some interesting shit, Lucas.”
Lucas shrugged, but gave the man a small smile. “You could say that.” Pointing back to me, he said, “This is Riley, and that fucker over there, sucking face with two of your girls, is Declan. Let’s take this conversation somewhere a little less wild before he starts fucking them in public.”
Hammer snorted at my brother and then barked out, “Candy! Destiny! Don’t you have customers to see to?”
The blonde and the brunette jumped in surprise before slowly starting to peel away from my brother. The blonde pouted at Hammer much like she’d been pouting at me a few minutes before. “Aww, come on, Hammer. We just wanted to welcome the new members before the other girls get to them. Don’t take them away from us.”

Hammer shook his head. “Jesus, woman. Close down the open sign on your pussy and let us get down to business. If the boys want to party later, then you’ll see ‘em. If not, I’m sure you’ll be riding another brother’s dick before the night is out. Now get your pretty little ass to work.”
